"The Night of Confession is coming soon. Then, the Prophet will show us her beauty! We will wander in the lavender ocean she has cast. Whether it is our deceased relatives or friends who have returned to the spirit world, they will all meet us again at that time..."
Confession Night?
He vaguely remembered that everyone who joined the Void Cult would have their minds influenced by Malzahar's "Evil Star Illusion", which would absorb their memories and devour their flesh and blood.
Simply put, it is to use those people as living sacrifices.
Li Lin's brows were tightly furrowed.
"What he said...could it be the void?"
Kasa's expression grew slightly serious. She reached out and tugged at Li Lin's arm, lowering her voice and asking, "Why is he doing this?! The Void is clearly the mortal enemy of all living things..."
"Most people in Shurima are not well educated, and with all the strange magic that exists, many people who believe in it are easily deceived."
As he spoke, Li Lin calmly observed the reactions of the people around him.
Most people scoffed at the words of the man from the Void Cult in front of them, with expressions of amusement on their faces.
However, there were several men and women of different ages, but basically they were 30 and above, with expressions of excitement on their faces.
"Sir Ramos, may I ask...is everything you said true?"
A woman with dark skin, gray hair at the temples, and a face full of marks of time squeezed out of the crowd and asked with a trembling voice.
Her eyes were red and tears were hanging in the corners of her eyes. She was obviously thinking of her relatives who had passed away long ago.
"Can your so-called 'void' really allow me to see my long-deceased husband and son? They were the guides of a caravan two years ago and were killed by the Shakar bandits..."
As she spoke, the woman's tears could not stop sliding down the wrinkles on her face.
"Yes, yes... The Prophet will reunite you with your loved ones, and your memories will provide her with strength. It's a win-win situation."
The middle-aged man's cloudy eyes narrowed into slits.
Although his facial expressions were completely obscured by the veil, Li Lin could still see that he was smiling.
"We can't let him deceive others!"
Kassa couldn't help it anymore, so she stood up from behind Li Lin and ran to the front of the crowd.
She pointed at the Void Cult missionary and said angrily, "Don't believe this guy's nonsense! The Void will only bring destruction, and its ultimate goal is to devour the entire world!"
Everyone at the scene was in an uproar and started talking immediately.
However, only some people were surprised by what she had just said. Most people were a little surprised, or even panicked, by the strange-looking scales on the little girl's body.
The cultist turned his cloudy eyes to Kassa, and a fierce look flashed in the depths of his eyes.
But then, his brows relaxed again and surprise appeared in his eyes.
Because Kassa was standing behind Li Lin and was mostly blocked by him, the man did not notice Kassa.
But now Kassa was completely exposed to his sight, and the man could easily feel the power in her that was the same as that of the Prophet.
The power of the void.
"Oh, haha..." The man laughed strangely, "Little girl, you clearly have..."
However, just as the man finished speaking, Li Lin, who had already guessed what he wanted to say, activated the [Flash] function of the power armor and appeared in front of him in an instant.
Li Lin ignored the man and the people around him shouting in astonishment, and hit him on the nose and mouth with an iron fist, preventing him from revealing Kassa's identity.
A stream of blood spurted out of his nose and mouth through the face cloth, and blood stains were scattered all over the floor.
The cultist was knocked back by his partially-strength punch, knocking over the wooden notice board before falling heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust and instantly losing all sound.
Everyone around was stunned and speechless.
There was a moment of silence in the air.
Li Lin took out a handkerchief from his bag and wiped the blood off his right hand, then slowly turned around.
However, before he could say anything to the people around him, the excited Kasa couldn't help but shout, "Li Lin, you are so handsome!"
